Abstract

Novel pamoate salts of certain 3-phenyl-3-dimethylaminoalkyl-4,4dimethylpiperidin-2,6-diones (1) and pharmacologically acceptable solvates thereof are devoid of the weight loss and hepatocyte changes in the rat which limited to marginally effective levels the permitted clinical doses of the corresponding hydrochlorides in the treatment or prophylaxis of stress-related affective disorders such as anxiety, depression, migraine and sleep apnoea. The preferred pamoate salts are 3(3,5dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidine-2,6-dione pamoate and, especially, 3(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidine2,6-dione pamoate.

Description

NOVEL PIPERIDIN-2.6-DIONE PAMOATE SALTS AND THEIR USE FOR THF TREATMENT OF STRESS-RELATED AFFECTIVE DISORDERS.
The present invention relates to pamoate salts of certain 3-phenyl-3- dimethylaminoalkyl-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6-diones and their use in the treatment of stress-related affective disorders. The term "stress-induced affective disorder" is used herein to include any disorder associated with elevated levels of 5-HT (5- hydroxytryptamine; serotonin) resultant from newly synthesised 5-HT.
3-Phenyl-3-dimethylaminoalkyl-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6-diones of the following Formula I and their acid addition salts have been known since 1974 (see BE-A-808,958; corresponding to GB-A-1 ,455,687 & US-A-3,963,729):
Figure imgf000002_0001
wherein:
RT represents methoxy, ethoxy or hydroxy;
R2 represents methoxy, ethoxy, hydroxy or hydrogen; and n represents 2 or 3.
They have been reported to have a range of pharmacological activities (see US- A-3,963,729; US-A-4,461,771 ; US-A-4,738,973; US-A-4,835,151 ; US-A-4,835,151 ; US- A-4,918,084; US-A-4,994,475; US-A-5, 1177,086; GB-A-2,196,251 & GB-A-2,206,491) but were primary of interest for the treatment of stress-related affective disorders, especially anxiety and depression. They are the only compounds presently known to block selectively the activation of tryptophan hydroxylase induced by depolarisation, metabolic inhibitors, methyl xanthine, or stress. The compound of choice for clinical investigation was 3(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4- dimethylpiperidine-2,6-dione, which has been variously identified as AGN 2979 (which designation will be used in this application); BTG 1501 ; MDL 72415 and SC 48274. A large number of acid addition salts of AGN 2979 have been proposed but the hydrochloride has been the salt of choice because hydrochloride acid addition salts are the most commonly used acid addition salts and can be readily and inexpensively prepared and there was no reason to believe that any other salts would have any advantage over the hydrochloride. There has been no previous proposal or suggestion to use a pamoate salt of AGN 2979, or of any other base of Formula I or other 3-phenyl substituted-3-dialkylaminoalkyl-4,4-dialkylpiperidin-2,6-dione, for any purpose.
A number of papers relating to clinical trials of the hydrochloride salt of AGN 2979 have been conducted and the results published. These showed the salt to be effective in the treatment of anxiety and depression at about 4 mg/kg/day (200-400 mg/day for human patients). However, a 1-year sub-acute toxicity study of the hydrochloride (200 mg/kg/day p o. (i.e. by mouth)) in rats showed that the animals suffered an immediate and continuing weight loss (40% over the 1-year period) and, as revealed by post-mortem examination, hepatocyte changes which had not been detected by routine transaminase determinations during the year. As a result, the USA Food and Drugs Administration ("F.D.A") precluded the use of the dose levels previously used in the clinical trials. A subsequent clinical study by Cutler et al using an F.D.A. allowed dose of 1 mg b.i.d. (i.e. twice daily) (about 30 μg/kg/day) showed that the hydrochloride salt of AGN 2979 possessed only marginally effective anxiolytic properties at FDA permitted dose levels.
It has now surprisingly been found that the aforementioned problems of weight loss and hepatocyte changes can be overcome by the use of the pamoate salt instead of the hydrochloride, or other previously disclosed salt, of compounds of Formula I. These pamoate salts do not cause weight loss and the indications are that they will not cause hepatocyte changes over prolonged periods of treatment. Furthermore, it has been found that the pamoate salts of the compounds of Formula I, contrary to the known salts, are tasteless and allow the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for the oral administration, especially in form of suspensions, syrups and the like. Thus, according to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided the pamoate salts of 3-phenyl-3-dimethylaminoalkyl-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6-diones of Formula I:
Figure imgf000004_0001
wherein:
Ri represents methoxy, ethoxy or hydroxy; R2 represents methoxy, ethoxy, hydroxy or hydrogen; and n represents 2 or 3, and pharmacologically acceptable solvates thereof.
Pamoic acid is 4,4'-methylenebis[3-hydroxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid] and is also known as embonic acid.
The compounds of Formula I exist in optical isomers and accordingly the pamoate salts can be used in racemate form or as individual (+) or (-) isomers. Presently the (-) isomer is preferred. The salts may exist in solvated, especially, hydrated, form and may hydrate on storage in a non-airtight environment.
In a second aspect, the present invention provides methods for the treatment or prophylaxis of stress-related affective disorders which comprise administering to a human or animal patient an effective amount of a pamoate salt of a compound of Formula I or a pharmacologically acceptable solvate thereof.
In a third aspect, the present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising the pamoate salt of a compound of Formula I or a pharmacologically acceptable solvate thereof and a pharmacologically acceptable diluent or carrier.
In a fourth aspect, the present invention provides the pamoate salts of compounds of Formula I and pharmacologically acceptable solvates thereof for use in treatments of the human or animal body by therapy or diagnosis practised on the human or animal body. In a fifth aspect, the present invention provides the use of pamoate salts of compounds of Formula I and pharmacologically acceptable solvates thereof in the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment or prophylaxis of stress-related affective disorders.
Examples of pamoate salts of compounds of Formula I include the following:
3-(3'-methoxyphenyl)-3-(2"-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate;
3-(3,-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate;
3-(3'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(2"-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate;
3-(3'-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate;
3-(3'-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate;
3-(3',5I-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin- 2,6-dione pamoate;
3-(3,,5'-dihydroxy)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidin-2,6- dione pamoate; and
3-(3',5,-diethoxy)-3-(3"-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethyl-piperidin-2,6- dione pamoate.
The preferred pamoate salts are those of compounds of Formula I in which Ri represents methoxy and R2 represents methoxy or hydrogen. The most preferred salts are 3(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4-dimethylpiperidine-2,6-dione pamoate and, especially, 3(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-4,4- dimethylpiperidine-2,6-dione (AGN 2979) pamoate.
The pamoate salts of the invention can be prepared by conventional techniques for converting a free base into an acid addition salt or for converting one acid addition salt to another. For example, the pamoate salt is prepared by treating an ethanol solution of a compound of Formula I with a cooled solution of pamoic acid in ethanol; evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure and recrystallisation of the residue from ethanol. Alternatively, a salt of a compound of Formula I may be converted into the pamoate by neutralisation, for example with ammonium hydroxide, and subsequent treatment with pamoic acid.
The compounds of Formula I can be prepared by the processes disclosed in US-A-3,963,729 or US-A-5, 104,990, the disclosure of which documents are incorporated by this reference. The optical isomers can be separated in conventional manner, for example the (-) isomers can be separated by crystallisation of their (+) binaphthyl phosphoric acid salts from a suitable solvent such as ethanol.
The pamoate salts of the compounds of Formula I have the same qualitative pharmacological activity as that previously reported for the free base and other acid addition salts, especially the hydrochloride, and is especially useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of any stress-induced affective disorder. As mentioned above, the term "stress-induced affective disorder" is used herein to include any disorder associated with elevated levels of 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine; serotonin) resultant from newly synthesised 5-HT. In particular, the pamoate salts can be used to treat or prevent those neurological and psychological diseases and conditions in which newly synthesised 5- HT is implicated and for which antidepressant, anxiolytic and antipsychotic drugs are presently indicated. Non-limiting examples of such diseases or conditions are agoraphobia; anorexia nervosa; anxiety; anxiogenisis associated with withdrawal from drugs of abuse; bulimia nervosa; chronic paroxysmal hemicrania; depression (including prevention of depressive recurrences); diminution of the immune response associated with anxiety, depression or bereavement; disorders of sleep initiation or maintenance; disorders of the sleep-awake schedule; dream anxiety attacks; Huntington's chorea; Kleine-Levin syndrome; memory disturbance; Meniere's disease, menstrual-associated sleep syndrome; migraine; motion sickness; nausea incompletely relieved by 5HT3 antagonist administration, neurogenic pain; neuropathic pain; obsessive-compulsive disorder; panic attacks; posttraumatic stress disorder; pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder; recurrent brief depression; Restless Leg syndrome, schizophrenia; senile dementia; serotonin-irritation syndrome; sleep apnoea; sleep related cardiovascular symptoms; sleep related epileptic seizures; sleep-related cluster headaches; sleep-related myoclomus syndrome; social phobia; sudden infant death syndrome; and tinnitus.
The antidepressant action of AGN 2979 pamoate is believed to result from the inhibition of tryptophan hydroxylase activation, and the mechanism of this effect may involve blockade of K+ channels since other metabolic inhibitors, such as guanidine and sodium cyanide, which are known to open K+ channels, can activate tryptophan hydroxylase and this activation can be blocked by AGN 2979 pamoate.
The pamoate salts of the invention can be administered in any of the manners previously proposed for the hydrochloride salt. They can be administered alone or in the form of pharmaceutical preparations to the patient being treated either orally or parenterally, for example subcutaneously or intravenously. The amount of pamoate salt administered will vary and can be any effective amount. Depending upon the patient and the mode of administration, the quantity of pamoate salt administered may vary over a wide range to provide from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 20 mg/kg, usually about 0.5 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg and preferably about 1 to about 5 mg/kg, of body weight of the patient per dose. Unit doses of these salts can contain, for example, from about 10 mg to about 500 mg, advantageously about 25 to about 200 mg. usually about 50 to about 100 mg of the pamoate salt and may be administered, for example, from 1 to 4 times daily. The term "unit dosage form" is used herein to mean a single or multiple dose form containing a quantity of the active ingredient in admixture with or otherwise in association with a diluent or carrier, said quantity being such that one or more predetermined units are normally required for a single therapeutic administration. In the case of multiple dose forms such as liquids or scored tablets, said predetermined unit will be one fraction, such as a 5 ml (teaspoon) quantity of a liquid or a half or quarter of a scored tablet, of the multiple dose form.
The pharmaceutical formulations in which form the pamoate salts of the invention will normally be utilised are prepared in a manner well known per se in the pharmaceutical art and usually comprise at least one active pamoate salt of the invention in admixture or otherwise in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent therefor. For making those formulations, the active ingredient usually will be mixed with a carrier, or diluted by a diluent, or enclosed or encapsulated in a capsule, sachet, cachet, paper or other container. A carrier or diluent may be solid, semi-solid or liquid material that serves as a vehicle, excipient or medium for the active ingredient. Suitable carriers or diluents are well known per se. The formulations may be adapted for enteral or parenteral use and may be administered to the patient in the form of tablets, capsules, dragees, suppositories, syrups, suspensions or the like. The invention is illustrated in the following non-limiting Examples.
